    Tarp Prussic'd to whoopie sling?

    Hey guys, i recently upgraded to whooping slings, and am considering attaching my tarp to a prussic attached to the loop of the sling (kind of like the tarp on the stock henessy suspension). I did this with my old suspension (single line with garda hitch) and it worked great as long as I had a tarp tensioner on the ends. Im just trying to figure out if the loop end of the W.S. will cause problems (no trees close to test on). Any body try this before?

    I've done it before with my HH exped after I converted to whoopies. It worked ok, mainly because it's hard to adjust your whoopies anyway after you've loaded the hammock with a bit of weight anyway, so you don't adjust much after your set up.
